Скачать или смотреть The Dark Side of Being a Digital Nomad (And How I Fixed It)

I thought being a digital nomad meant ultimate freedom.

Wake up in Bali. Work from a café in Mexico City. Chase the sunset in Thailand.

No boss. No schedule. Just me, my laptop, and a passport.

And for a while, it was everything I dreamed of.

Until it wasn’t.

Because here’s what no one talks about:

The loneliness that sneaks in when you’re constantly starting over.

The friendships that last a month.

The connections that never go deeper than “Where are you from?”

The exhaustion of always being in motion but never fully present.

I told myself: “This is what freedom looks like.”

But deep down, I craved something I never thought I’d want: Stability.

So I made a bold move, I planted roots in Barcelona.

And everything changed.

I found a city that felt like home.

A community that actually stuck around.

A rhythm of life that balanced freedom with foundation.

Funny how we chase movement, thinking it’ll make us feel alive, when sometimes, stillness is the real answer.

Now? I have the best of both worlds.

The ability to travel, but a place to come back to.

Freedom isn’t just about leaving…

Sometimes, it’s about choosing to stay.

Have you ever felt this way?

Drop a ✈️ if you get it.
